Tsuga diversifolia, Mast. (Abies diversifolia, Maxim. T. Sieboldii nana, Carr.). Tree, very similar to the preceding, but smaller and chiefly distinguished by the reddish brown pubescent branches: lvs. linear, emarginate or obtuse, shorter and narrower, broadest at the middle or toward the base: cone smaller, 1/2 – 3/4 in. long: peduncle not exceeding the bud-scales; bracts truncate, crenulate, not or slightly bifid. Japan.
